McCormick Hospital

5 chiangmaicharlies - a year ago

Having just had my second covid jab at McCormick, I have to say that both procedures were done in the most efficient and friendly manner.

All the staff involved deserve maximum praise for how they operated.

I have also used McCormick on other occasions and the service has always been top notch.

Highly recommended if you need a hospital.

Went to their Covid tent outside the entrance. Paid 800thb each ready to have a test. We were the only 2 people there so presumably were first in any queuing system they run. They took some details then administered the same kind of 39thb test you can buy in 7-11. After an hour we were asked to move to another tent, where we waited yet another hour, sweating with fever and bad heads. During that hour, only 2 of the 10 people sat there were called to a window and provided with medicine. We refused to wait any longer and asked for a refund since we had not received any doctor's services to look over our details and ATK result. We were told the 800 was specifically only for the ATK test so no refund could be provided. Appalling service and lack of communication about how long the wait would be.

I had an ear infection, bacterial...which was not responding to antibiotics administered by an independant ENT surgeon, I was given a referral to see the ENT surgeon at McCormick Hospital...my surgeon was Dr Anothai Pornlert.
She was faultless in the steps she took in ordering laboratory tests to identify the pathogen and prescribe the correct antibiotics to eliminate it.....absolutely professional, I am very grateful for her correct procedures and efficiency.
It was my health , and nothing was left to chance......the costing was fair and honest , the doctors fees through the hospital were less than the independants fees, overall fair to say I was over the moon and recieved competent medical care and procedure as good as one can find anywhere in the world.....5 stars to McCormick hospital and Dr Anothai Pornlert and all staff at the hospital I came into contact with.........I am very very grateful.

For anyone who has experienced bad pain when doing the mammogram: Jobjy from McCormick is a phantastic mammograph operator! MC Cormick is my go-to place for the mammogram now.

Update May 2022:

We visited McCormick again to assess its maternal package. The sales representative gave us a leaflet, but could not explain the details. He took us to the second floor to talk to someone who was supposed to have knowledge in the OB/GNY department. The nurses were rude and unhelpful. Assuming my wife is not Thai, they started talking about us jokingly in Thai. They seemed to presume that the doctors, the hospital, and they themselves should be trusted blindly without further concerns than the information given on the leaflet.

We are certain now that McCormick is one of the worst private hospitals in town. Its doctors and nurses have demonstrated repeatedly little professionalism nor respect for the Hippocratic Oath. We will never use it again. Period.

I am changing my review of McCormick from Recommended to Not Recommended.

Previously, we had a good experience with McCormick. The following is my comment from my previous review that I have already deleted.

"We visited McCormick Hospital for my mother-in-law's misdiagnosed Grade III/IV spondylolisthesis. We were received by Dr. A. N. with utmost professionalism. Thanks to him, the misdiagnosis from two public hospitals previously was identified, and we were happy to know that my mother-in-law's condition was more like Grade I than III/IV. If you are looking for a great orthopedist who speaks fluent English, he is highly recommended!"

However, after using McCormick a few times, especially after the latest experience, we have decided not to use it again.

First, we realized from a follow-up visit that Dr. A. N. has overcharged us for the X-ray by more than 300%. He did so by prescribing unnecessary X-ray scans.

Second, most of the doctors at McCormick DO NOT speak adequate English, whereas their arrogant receptionists claimed every time that ALL of their doctors speak fluent English.

Third, most of the doctors, especially the old ones, DO NOT want to take responsibilities for their diagnoses, so they often do not issue the medical record, nor diagnoses with their signatures by default. When we insisted that we wanted the medical record with the doctors' signatures, they asked why every single time, and took the trouble and time to explain to us why we did not need the medical record.

Last but not least, McCormick is the slowest hospital we have used in Chiang Mai, compared to more expensive ones, such as Chiang Mai Ram Hospital, and less expensive ones, such as Lanna Hospital. The long wait at McCormick is negatively correlated with the work ethic and professionalism of their staff obviously.

McCormick seems a place for under-qualified or retired doctors who just want to make money out of patients without taking responsibilities. Hence, we will no longer use it and urge anyone who is considering using it to think twice.
